Its ok for first 12 months as long as Manchester BS doesnt decide to just drop the rate for no apparent reason.

"Rates shown include a bonus of 0.80% payable for the first 12 months from account opening."

They have form on that - quite a few years ago though (around the first incarnation of Sainsbury who did exactly the same which is why I avoided their second attempt...).

Yes I agree : :T Has been that behaviour only on the non Isas though as Manchester BS only started doing ISAs in relatively recent times.
